I'm in WA, which is not nearly as bad as CA for the moment. But it's getting there in a hurry if Fuhrer Inslee has his way.
I'm wondering if things are moving behind the scenes, though, in light of the lawsuits being brought against them by AFLD. When my exemption was initially approved, I was told I needed to submit to bi-weekly testing as a condition of it and that my manager would be following up with me about it. After that, I heard nothing. Nada. Even followed up with my manager to make sure she hadn't forgotten.
Now we're being told that testing will no longer be conducted on unjabbed employees.
I haven't received an email (yet) demanding further information about my exemption, but they seem to be going out in batches every Friday. For now, my HR case still reads as "Exemption Approved", so I'm going to hope I'm not worth pursuing since I don't directly work with patients or staff, and it would be difficult to argue that its hard to accommodate me.
That’s awesome that you haven’t gotten an email yet, I pray that continues to be the case for you. We’re in CO and my coworker got his two weeks ago, at 9 pm on a Friday night, and they gave him 3 calendar days to respond. Thank goodness he had his account set up to get emails sent to his personal email and not just his work account. Talk about some shady sketch going on sending an email out at 9 pm on a Friday night. 🙄
Anyways, people obviously raised hell about that b/c my manager got her email last weekend and I got mine on Monday and both of us had 5 days to reply. I spent all day today answering those stupid questions that were even worse than the last ones. I’m really thinking of doing a post on GAW w/ the questions we had to answer so everyone can see how despicable they are and what we’re up against. It really is hard to fathom that a giant corporation sent out such an unprofessional email w/ questions that would normally violate every religious discrimination policy and law known to man. It just tells you how much they feel like they’re invincible and immune to lawsuits. 🤷🏼♀️
We started getting tested biweekly October first but honestly nobody followed up w/ us either or seems to be keeping track. We’re all about not complying but are also trying to fly under the radar and not give them any reason to fire us so we’re keeping up with the tests for now.
My coworker and I work w/ oncology patients all day every day so we’re worried they’ll try to pull some crap about us working with the immunocompromised while being “unvaccinated”.They still haven’t let my coworker know if he’s approved again and it’s been 2 weeks. He thinks they’re waiting for whatever OSHA is planning to roll out so they can use that as their reason for denying our exemptions. Even though that’s bogus and OSHA shouldn’t be able to mandate vaccines, we all know they could care less about the Constitution and our rights and so at this point, I’m afraid he might be right. Anyways, I’ll let you know what happens. Good luck on your end! ❤️🇺🇸
